Smoking ban to be revisited


PETALING JAYA: Things are moving again for Malaysia’s generational end game (GEG) on smoking, with the proposed law expected to be ready by the first Parliament meeting next year.

Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa (pic) said she was hoping to fine-tune the Bill, which aims to create a smoke-free generation starting with those born after Jan 1, 2007, before the Dewan Rakyat sits for the first time in 2023.
